Leave a Scar Lyrics
--INTRO/MAIN RIFF:
--VERSE 1:
The old man was a good man, he raised his children right
He taught us how to work hard and showed us how to fight
Told me about the good Lord and when to use a gun
Made me very proud of where it is that I come from
--MAIN RIFF (x1)--
--CHORUS--
When I die put my bones in the Dixie dirt
Look down on me smiling I don't want no feelings hurt
All I leave behind me is a ragged old guitar
C G A(stop)
I may not change the world but I'm gonna leave a scar
--MAIN RIFF--
--VERSE 2:
A(stop) (banjo)
Years they rolled on by, the old man turned me loose
Way cross town I learned about them sad ol' country blues
Taught me how to prep my heart from trying to make it right
Told me not to ever break but one law at a time
--MAIN RIFF (x1)--
--CHORUS:
When I die put my bones in the Dixie dirt
Look down on me smiling I don't want no feelings hurt
All I leave behind me is a ragged old guitar
C G A(stop)
I may not change the world but I'm gonna leave a scar
--MAIN RIFF--
--BRIDGE:
Hope you'll wear me on your memory like a painted old tattoo
I might not make no history book but I'll burn a page or two
Yeah
Pre-Lead: A D G A
LEAD (Rhythm is verse chords)
--CHORUS:
When I die put my bones in the Dixie dirt
Look down on me smiling I don't want no feelings hurt
All I leave behind me is a ragged old guitar
I may not change the world but I'm gonna leave a scar
C G A(stop)
I may not change the world ... but I'm gonna leave a scar
--MAIN RIFF--
--END--
